  2. Redundancy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Redundancy

    Redundancy (information theory), the number of bits used to transmit a message minus the number of bits of actual information in the message; Redundancy in total quality management, quality which exceeds the required quality level, creating unnecessarily high costs; The same task executed by several different methods in a user interface

  3. Redundancy (linguistics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Redundancy_(linguistics)

    In linguistics, a redundancy is information that is expressed more than once. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] Examples of redundancies include multiple agreement features in morphology , [ 1 ] multiple features distinguishing phonemes in phonology , [ 2 ] or the use of multiple words to express a single idea in rhetoric . [ 1 ]

  4. Pleonasm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pleonasm

    The "up" in "climb up" is not always redundant, as in the example "He climbed up and then fell down the mountain." Many other examples of pleonasm are redundant only if the speaker's knowledge is taken into account. For example, most English speakers would agree that "tuna fish" is redundant because tuna is a kind of fish.

  6. Redundancy (engineering) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Redundancy_(engineering)

    Geographic redundancy corrects the vulnerabilities of redundant devices deployed by geographically separating backup devices. Geographic redundancy reduces the likelihood of events such as power outages, floods, HVAC failures, lightning strikes, tornadoes, building fires, wildfires, and mass shootings disabling most of the system if not the entirety of it.

  7. Redundancy (information theory) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Redundancy_(information...

    Redundancy of compressed data refers to the difference between the expected compressed data length of messages () (or expected data rate () /) and the entropy (or entropy rate ). (Here we assume the data is ergodic and stationary , e.g., a memoryless source.)

  8. RAID - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RAID

    RAID (/ r eɪ d /; redundant array of inexpensive disks or redundant array of independent disks) [1] [2] is a data storage virtualization technology that combines multiple physical data storage components into one or more logical units for the purposes of data redundancy, performance improvement, or both.

  9. Fault tolerance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fault_tolerance

    This is known as N-model redundancy, where faults cause automatic fail-safes and a warning to the operator, and it is still the most common form of level one fault-tolerant design in use today. Voting was another initial method, as discussed above, with multiple redundant backups operating constantly and checking each other's results.
